    Ladbrokes lied in their answer to me

    They said. Usually we want people to make as big bets as they want, but we have to restrict some markets which many people bet on.

    Strange that all those bets occur now in january!

    I could bet 300 dollars on every single game i chose one month ago, but now I can bet max 30 dollars, usually i can only bet 7 dollars.


    Once u could bet as much as u wanted and they offered great bonuses, now u cant bet 30 dollars and I havent received a bonus for a long time.

    And when u ask them. Do u still offer this bonus. They dont answer. They reply: Check our page where we list the bonuses, they dont even offer a link!

    Great customer service!

    Isn't William Hill pretty well known for taking shots at players like retroactively canceling correlated parlays?

    Ladbrokes live betting is really amazing.

    You placed a bet at +200 and after a 10 seconds delay, Ladbrokes accept your bet as +163. Thanks for this almighty Ladbrokes

    Boylesports has also hit me

    Thought Ladbrokes were allowing bigger bets again since I could bet 50 dollars. But now they are back in their joke business again. I can only bet 10 dollars.

    I waited 30 mins and betted again, they hadnt moved their line, but I could not bet any more. Move the line or accept the bet u morons.

    Boylesports has also started to limit me now. Last bet I wanted to do I could not even bet 0.01, I wanted to bet 100 dollars at 2.30, I waited for thirty minutes and tried again. They hadnt moved their line they just wanted me to call their manual service. And I know what that means. U get a ridiculous offer of betting 25 dollars to odds 2.05 and since the call is international the price for the call would probably be more than the expected profit.

    Goodbye to this bookie. I withdrew immediately.

    Boyles are not an A book so it doesn't surprise me .

    My point is No book should be rated A if they cannot except 10 euro action !
    VictorChandler, Coral and Eurobet are three other A-bookies that will limit you. They did it with me.

    will they limit you to nothing if you win from the big soccer leagues only?

    (not arbing,scalping,trading,prop bets,exotic bets,etc).Just betting on the main markets.

    I doubt.

    I doubt.
    So you are saying it's all good as long as we wager on top leagues ?
    I have a better idea UK Books can tell us the match ups to wager on, that would solve all the limiting problems .
    And why do they offer lower league and other sports?
    My guess is ,just to look COOL .

    UK Books tend to solve their problem by calling punters "sharps" cheats and arbers.Instead of admitting they are bunch of dumb asses that can't set the line /odds right .

    If bookmaker can't set the lines right for lower leagues .
    They shouldn't offer lower leagues or other sports .
    Each time books f*ck up . It's a players fault . Or player arber /cheat and so on. LOL .

    I wanna bet this game :

    Austria - tipp3 Bundesliga
    13:49 February 20
    18:00 Austria Vienna ? - ? SK Austria Kärnten

    If i win, i am a bad dude. Arber, cheater ,sharp ,scalper . You name it.
    Instead of risk management department hire bookmakers with a brains .

    This is from Letter To The Greek Sportsbook Players:

    "it is better to lose an eye than to lose your name or reputation".
    It's taking a while for books like Ladbrokes to figure this one out.

    http://www.thegreek.com/introletter.asp


    It's very unprofessional .Unprofessional is the wrong word, lousy bookmaking and not respecting a costumer. Multi million $ corporation limiting players to $1 .
    Give me a break. Clearly Lads and the other books that limit players to $1. FOR LOSERS ONLY .

    Good for them . It's only a matter of time before they go down . Exchanges and Asian books are on the rise .
    "It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin "
    Lads and the others "Losers only " are on the right truck.

    Don't get me wrong I am not here(started this trend) to get my limits back . I can open # of accounts from my friends place and beat them again . But i am not a weasel . It's more for what is RIGHT . And my personal believe Lads do not deserve A rating nor any other book that limits players to $1 .
    SBR should warn them and the other "losers only" of been down graded for such a practice .
    This trend can work both ways :
    1) Book is stupid enough to continue limiting and fiasco at the end .
    2) Learn from the mistakes and take the whole (new) approach .
    To Lads this trend has done nothing but the damage . And they deserve it .
    It's up to them which direction they wanna go to . So if they read this they can actually benefit .






    Ladbrokes, i know thinking is a hard job and it requires time . But you should try

    MY 2 cents .

    I hate to say this, but most BRITTISH BOOKS is terrible, and most other european bookies comming with them. Nordicbet, Betsafe, you name it..

    IT MUST BE AN END FOR THIS BEHAVIOUR FROM TOP-RANKED BOOKMAKERS. DO SOMETHING!

    Thats why I stick with this american forums, searching for good american sportsbook instead.

    Thanks SBR.

    I gurantee you, but exact the same thing happened to me, playing LIVE at ladbrokes. Ladbrokes steals money this way, someway they need to earn money.

    Looks like those Euro books have turned into real jokes! Limiting people after their first bet? WTF! Tell you the truth those "4 losers only " books they really starting to piss me off. Some of them have A rating... (That should tell you something about rating system). They should be shut down. If you can not deal with winning players in any other fashion , you have nothing to do in this business!

    So who is left there for European players? Pinny , WillHill, BetFair and SBOBet Who else? Is Centerbet worth anything? Looks to me that world is getting too small sooner or later for a good pro player and their only real option is to move to Vegas...

    Willhill limit to pennies.

    SBO limited me to 1k ages ago. From what I heard they don't go lower than that unless you arb them.

    Betfair premium charge winners, which is as good as closing the account.


    All books limit though, just a matter of time.

    What do they charge in BetFair? I hear their commission is high. So if you win do they hit you with the 20%?
    And WillHill as big as they are limit you to pennies? European players looks like are not happier than we here in US. Lot has changed in this industry during the last 5 years. Smart bettors getting smarter with all the computer controlled stats available and books running out of liquid because of the economical crises. So they have become fragile and sensitive as teenage girls few days before their period...
    Pretty soon winners will be outlawed everywhere and only losers are welcome

    Hi . I have a question for you . Why are my wagering limits are so low ?
    I find it hard to believe that multi million dollar corp like
    ladbrokes can't accept a wager more then 5 euros . Are you in financial
    trouble ? Or it's your "risk management department " came up with an
    idea that if i wager more then 5 euros per game you gonna go broke ?
    I am not trying to be sarcastic with you .

    Cheers.

    William Hills limited me to €0.91 max on anything when I had €12 left in the account ...

    So, I just started watching the odds tracking sites for when they are stupidly out-of-line on a longshot horse and taking 91c worth in the hopes of getting to be punitive ...

    Balance now still at €31.12 months later after a pair of 30/1 shots hit one week
